Bogota, Colombia, 1/4 real, 1852, caduceus type, very rare, NGC MS 66 with gold WINGS sticker, finest known in NGC census, ex-Lissner. Restrepo-176.1; KM-113. Deep strike with full rims, muted luster but no marks or wear, very rare type struck in just two dates (1852 and 1858) with caducei flanking the denomination, a design that continued into the Granadine Confederation issues as 1/4 decimo (the coins just say "1/4"), this being the finest of the known 1852's (Restrepo says three to four known but five can be found in CoinArchives and four are in the NGC census), hammered for $6000 in Lissner in 2014. NGC #3831525-058. Pedigreed to the R.L. Lissner collection (stated on label).
